  1. Select the reflected curve and request its parametric equation (from the Calculate (Output) palette).
  2. Compare them side-by-side and youll see that theyre identical, except for the minus sign in front of the expression that equals y.
  3. If you repeat the experiment for the implicit equation, you'll see they are identical.
